Method

Mix all ingredients in a bowl to form a batter; brush the mini pie trays with a little oil; spoon some batter in each tray; steam in a steamer for approximately 20-30 minutes depending on the size of the individual cakes; a cake is ready when you insert a skewer into the center, it comes out clean; serve warm.

You can also cook the cakes in microwave – I used ramekins loosely lined with baking paper. The time required depends on your microwave and the size of the ramekins you use – with my 1100w microwave it took 4 minutes on medium for 2 cakes. Although the cakes cooked by the microwave do not look as good as the steamed ones, they taste just as nice.
